Aging Committee raises agenda items 1 through 10, votes to draft SB 13
Summary
The Connecticut General Assembly Aging Committee on Jan. 21 unanimously approved raising agenda items 1–10 and approved a voice vote to draft SB 13. Both were passed by voice vote; details of SB 13 were not discussed in the meeting.
The Aging Committee of the Connecticut General Assembly on Jan. 21 voted by voice to raise items 1 through 10 on its agenda and, later in the session, voted by voice to draft SB 13, the committee chair said.
The votes were taken by voice without recorded roll-call tallies. For the motion to raise agenda items 1 through 10 the chair called for a voice vote; members signified their support and the chair said, “The ayes have it, and the motion carries.” For the motion to draft SB 13 the committee likewise used a voice vote and the chair announced, “The ayes have it, and the motion carries.” The transcript does not record a roll-call, numeric tallies, or named yes/no votes for either action.
Raising items on an agenda typically moves those items forward in committee procedure; the committee’s vote to draft SB 13 authorizes staff to prepare the bill for subsequent consideration. The contents of SB 13 were not discussed on the record at this meeting, and the transcript does not specify who moved or seconded the motions by name.
The committee scheduled its next meeting for Tuesday, Jan. 28, at 10 a.m., with the room to be determined. The chair recessed the session until 2 p.m.
